Edit history

BatHawk formed in 2014 in Adelaide, South Australia by Troy Francis (Guitar/Vocals) and Kieron Lomax (Guitar/Vocals) as a musical outlet following a break after previous bands (Diamond Sins and Bad Blood & Broken Bones). They recruited Aaron Farrant (Drums) and Ben Ainsworth aka Oopie (Bass) to jam on covers and write a few originals. Influenced by bands such as Backyard Babies, The Bronx and Hellacopters, a good range of original music started coming together with Troy and Kieron trading duties on vocals to bring together an array of raw rock n’ roll music. After jamming and writing together for over a year we decided it would be good to get a demo of a few songs together after continuously being asked what we sound like, so we went into the studio to lay down a collection of 3 to 5 songs one evening. The 5 songs recorded that came out of it sounded so much better than any of us expected, we decided to mix and master the recordings and call it an EP, releasing ‘The Jono EP’ in
